    Battlefield 3 Performance: 30+ Graphics Cards, Benchmarked

    dragonsqrrl...with AA disabled. Not sure I understand your post, are you saying the 6970 won't hit those fps unless msaa is disabled? With MSAA disabled my 5870 is very playable at 1920x1200 and is in the 40fps range. A 6970 can easily do 40-45 maxed out with msaa.

    Battlefield: Play4Free Goes Open Beta in April

    azconnieGiven the fact that this game is published by EA, I VERY STONGLY urge any and all gamers to boycott this, and and EA game entirely. It is time to make EA aware that we are tired of their crooked business practices. Given the fact that this post is incredibly stupid I urge any and all...

    Battlefield: Play4Free Goes Open Beta in April

    00900100011@bigmac80 It's not a free game. It's a game in beta, you were testing their software. It may be in beta atm but; I assume the title Battlefield: Play4Free means the game will indeed be... free.

    Battlefield 3 PC will Be ''Lead Platform''

    ithurtswhenipeeDoes anybody remember Joint Operations? 150 players in a server. Maps that covered several square miles. Granted the graphics are nothing compared to today's standard but those were some epic battles. I always yearned for a game that was a hybrid of Joint Operations and...

    AMD Releasing Radeon HD 6950 1GB for $279?

    dark_lord69Today, I play any game I want without dumbing down the graphics. I agree with most of what you said but; when playing BC2 or Dirt2 or many other DX11 games you are in fact "dumbing down the graphics". I can enjoy games without the best of the best for sure, but let's not pretend...

    Why Wait? Sandy Bridge CPUs Are On Sale Now

    lradunovic77So why would people buy this crap and replace motherboard??? I don't think Sandy Bridge offers anything revolutionary and having integreated graphich chip in CPU is another stupid idea. I would assume not everyone is running something as new as a x58 or P55. For upgraders this is a...

    rhelmeWell, if the Xbox came out with a game that needed 50 Gig of Disc space, that is what, 10 DVD's??? Please swap disc 7 for 8 to continue..... What if PS3 came out with a game that actually used 50GB of space (that was not fmv)? That game would cost $300 because the amount of game needed to...

    PlayStation 3 SSD Upgrade Makes it Load Faster

    soky602For those who say PC is better. Hey I agree, but there isn't really any pre-built $300 PC that can do what the PS3 can do out of a box. Am thinking if you went AMD it would be pretty easy to match the PS3 in performance but would probably go over that price by a bit. But really, they...
